Aspiring Surgical Chairs Encouraged to Attend April Seminar

The Society of Surgical Chairs (SSC) and the ACS Women in Surgery Committee are hosting a half-day leadership seminar, So You Want to be a Chair, for mid-career surgeons who have previously applied for chair positions and/or are looking to apply for chair positions as a next step in their career.

Scheduled immediately prior to the ACS Leadership & Advocacy Summit, the Seminar will be on Saturday, April 5, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm ET at the Grand Hyatt Washington, DC. Attendees will have an opportunity to learn from and network with current surgical chairs and have in-depth discussions with other attendees.

Attendees are responsible for covering the cost of their travel and lodging. All attendees are encouraged to remain in Washington, DC, and attend the 2025 ACS Leadership & Advocacy Summit on April 5–8.

The deadline to apply is Friday, February 14.
